Default Elias Lindholm Highlights 2017-18

Nice little highlight package on YouTube. Even better that it starts with him burning the Oilers. One thing I noticed is that the majority of Lindholm's goals/chances come within 5-7 feet of the net. He's a good net front presence guy who can tip the puck well and also cycle low. I think he'd look very good playing with Gaudreau/Monahan. That would free up Neal to play with Tkachuk and would make for a solid second line.

I agree with your assessment, but I also love his puck retrieval and the way he wins puck battles. Great hand-eye and always finds a way to get the puck in when in tight in front of the net. I think he's going to add a lot to our power play.

I could be mistaken but I'm pretty sure that package was made by a Flames fan. There's a Hanifin one too.

Looks like he would compliment JG and SM really well. Neal on 2nd line to displace Frolik. That makes the most sense stylistically

I like the advantage of having Lindholm on the 2nd line with Backlund mainly for his FO as it seems to be Backlunds weakness. I can see how Neal and Lindholm will change places every couple games or so under Peter's. They both seem like they will fit on either line.
